Answer & explanation:

Summary on electrochemical cells and redox reactions:

Electrochemical cells (or batteries) can be defined as devices capable of transforming chemical energy into electrical energy through spontaneous reactions of redox, in which electron transfer occurs.

Redox it is a chemical reaction in which there is the occurrence of oxidation and reduction of atoms of substances (chemical species) present in the process.

<u>Oxidation</u> is the loss of electrons by an atom of a chemical species, while <u>reduction</u> is the gain of electrons by an atom of a chemical species.

Thus, during an oxirreduction reaction, electrons move from the species that loses them towards the species that will receive them. This "movement" results in the formation of an electric current (or electrical energy) as occurs with batteries, for example.

The boiling point of an aqueous 1.83 m (nh4)2so4 (molar mass = 132.15 g/mol) solution is 102.5°c. determine the value of the van
Goshia [24]

We need to know the value of van't hoff factor.

The van't hoff factor is: 2.66 or 2.7 (approximately)

(NH₄)₂SO₄ is an ionic compound, so it dissociates in solution and produces 3 ionic species. Therefore van't hoff factor is more than one.

From the equation: ΔT_{b}=i K_{b}.m, where ΔT_{b}= elevation of boiling point=102.5 - 100=2.5°C.

m=molality of solute=1.83 m (Given)

K_{b}= Ebullioscopic constant or Boiling point elevation constant= 0.512°C/m (Given)

i= Van't Hoff factor

So, 2.5= i X 0.512 X 1.83

i=\frac{2.5}{0.512 X 1.83}

i=2.66= 2.7 (approx.)

In a physical change, the _____ does not change.
Ksivusya [100]

Physical changes occur when objects or substances undergo a change that does not change their chemical composition. This contrasts with the concept of chemical change in which the composition of a substance changes or one or more substances combine or break up to form new substances.

Ideal gas (n 2.388 moles) is heated at constant volume from T1 299.5 K to final temperature T2 369.5 K. Calculate the work and h
bija089 [108]

Answer : The work, heat during the process and the change of entropy of the gas are, 0 J, 3333.003 J and -10 J respectively.

Explanation :

(a) At constant volume condition the entropy change of the gas is:

\Delta S=-n\times C_v\ln \frac{T_2}{T_1}

We know that,

The relation between the C_p\text{ and }C_v for an ideal gas are :

C_p-C_v=R

As we are given :

C_p=28.253J/K.mole

28.253J/K.mole-C_v=8.314J/K.mole

C_v=19.939J/K.mole

Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas.

\Delta S=-n\times C_v\ln \frac{T_2}{T_1}

\Delta S=-2.388\times 19.939J/K.mole\ln \frac{369.5K}{299.5K}=-10J

(b) As we know that, the work done for isochoric (constant volume) is equal to zero. (w=-pdV)

(C) Heat during the process will be,

q=n\times C_v\times (T_2-T_1)=2.388mole\times 19.939J/K.mole\times (369.5-299.5)K= 3333.003J

Therefore, the work, heat during the process and the change of entropy of the gas are, 0 J, 3333.003 J and -10 J respectively.
